'Fraternal-twin' ferroelectricity: competing polar states in hydrogen-doped samarium nickelate from first principles

In ferroelectric switching, an applied electric field switches the system between two polar symmetry-equivalent states. In this work, we use first-principles calculations to explore the polar states of hydrogen-doped samarium nickelate (SNO) at a concentra ...

Dynamic nuclear polarisation of 1H in Gd-doped In(OH)3

David Lyndon Emsley, Michael Allan Hope, Yuxuan Zhang, Amrit Venkatesh

Dynamic nuclear polarisation (DNP) of solids doped with high-spin metal ions, such as Gd3+, is a useful strategy to enhance the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) sensitivity for these samples. Spin diffusion can relay polarisation throughout a sample, which ...

Symmetry-Induced Singlet-Triplet Inversions in Non-Alternant Hydrocarbons

Marc Hamilton Folkmann Garner, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Jacob Terence Blaskovits

Molecules with inversion of the singlet and triplet excited-state energies are highly promising for the development of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). To date, azaphenalenes are the only class of molecules where these inversions have been identified ...

Landau levels of the Euler class topology

Oleg Yazyev, Yifei Guan

Two-dimensional systems with C2T (PT) symmetry exhibit the Euler class topology E is an element of Z in each two-band subspace realizing a fragile topology beyond the symmetry indicators. By systematically studying the energy levels of Euler insulating pha ...

Quasi-symmetry-protected topology in a semi-metal

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Matthias Carsten Putzke, Yi-Chiang Sun, Chunyu Guo, Xiangwei Huang, Jonas De Jesus Diaz Gomez

The concept of quasi-symmetry-a perturbatively small deviation from exact symmetry-is introduced and leads to topological materials with strong resilience to perturbations. The crystal symmetry of a material dictates the type of topological band structure ...

The kinectome: A comprehensive kinematic map of human motion in health and disease

Enrico Amico, Antonella Romano, Emahnuel Troisi Lopez

Human voluntary movement stems from the coordinated activations in space and time of many musculoskeletal segments. However, the current methodological approaches to study human movement are still limited to the evaluation of the synergies among a few body ...

On the non-existence of stepped-pressure equilibria far from symmetry

Joaquim Loizu Cisquella

The Stepped Pressure Equilibrium Code (SPEC) (Hudson et al 2012 Phys. Plasmas 19 112502) has been successful in the construction of equilibria in 3D configurations that contain a mixture of flux surfaces, islands and chaotic magnetic field lines. In this m ...

A note on the large charge expansion in 4d CFT

Gabriel Francisco Cuomo

In this letter, we discuss certain universal predictions of the large charge expansion in conformal field theories with U (1) symmetry, mainly focusing on four-dimensional theories. We show that, while in three dimensions quantum fluctuations are responsib ...

One-dimensional composite host-guest structure in BaVS3

László Forró, Gervais Chapuis, Alla Arakcheeva, Helmuth Berger, Philip Pattison, Neven Barisic

A detailed synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) study performed with a single crystal of BaVS3 (barium vanadium trisulfide) in the temperature range between 10 and 295 K is reported. Aside from the known tetragonal–orthorhombic (240 K) and orthorhombic–mono ...

Symmetry enhanced spin-Nernst effect in honeycomb antiferromagnetic transition metal trichalcogenide monolayers

We investigate systematically the spin-Nernst effect in Neel and zigzag ordered honeycomb antiferromagnets. Monolayers of transition-metal trichalcogenides, MnPSe3, MnPS3, and VPS3 show an antiferromagnetic Neel order while CrSiTe3, NiPS3, and NiPSe3 show ...
